Would-be burglars foiled

15/06/2015

POLICE are searching for three people who damaged the front door and windows of a Springvale property when they tried to break into the house last week.
The raiders tried to force entry to the Whitworth Avenue home at 6am on Thursday 4 June but soon fled when they were unable to get inside.
An occupant was inside the house at the time but it’s not believed they saw the offenders.
A car at the property was also damaged during the attempted burglary.
